Breadstick Pizza

Not only do refrigerated breadsticks lend a fun twist to pizza, but they make this dish a weeknight staple at my house. Feeding kids? Slice pieces into small strips and let the kids dip each strip into marinara sauce. They’ll love it!

Ingredients

  • 2 tubes (11 ounces each) refrigerated breadsticks
  • 1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 2 medium green peppers, chopped
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons italian seasoning, divided
  • 4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
  • 1-1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
  • 5 ounces canadian bacon, chopped

Directions

  1. Unroll breadsticks into a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of pan; pinch seams to seal. Bake at 350° until set, 6-8 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook and stir the mushrooms, peppers, onion and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning in 2 teaspoons oil until crisp-tender; drain.
  3. Brush crust with remaining 2 tsp. oil. Sprinkle with 3/4 cup cheddar cheese; top with vegetable mixture and Canadian bacon. Combine mozzarella cheese and remaining 3/4 cup cheddar cheese; sprinkle over top. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 tsp. Italian seasoning.
